Joe Bryan – Graduating with Honors 2026

About Joe (Joey)

During high school, Joe served as Captain of his Trap Team, leading with focus, discipline, and teamwork. Most notably, he won 1st Place Varsity Male & High Gun Overall Male in our 1,000+ athlete Division at the 2025 Alexandria State Tournament. He has made us very proud with numerous other trap awards as it seems this is a sport that just comes naturally. He has also been an active volunteer member of the Sons of the American Legion at Post 65, reflecting his commitment to service and community.

In addition to academics and leadership, Joe earned his Brown Belt in Ashihara kaikan-style Karate, developing perseverance and self-discipline both inside and outside the training room. He has stepped up to lead the class in the instructor’s absence and teaches the younger students sparring techniques.

This summer, Joe will begin his next chapter at Winona State University, pursuing a degree in Composite Materials Engineering. He’s getting a head start by beginning summer coursework with Introduction to Calculus and will become a full-time student in the Fall.

Joe is looking toward the future – excited for the opportunities, challenges, and experiences that lie ahead. Your encouragement and support mean a great deal to him.
